My opinion is throwing people in prison and confiscating their stuff is wrong unless they’ve violated someone’s person or property. Drugs can be legal as long as crimes committed under the influence of drugs are properly punished.

Magic mushrooms do not cause zombification, that’s opiates mostly especially fentanyl.

The alternative is worse, since seeking some form of genetic equity is proven disastrous.

It’s surprising anyone would publish or conduct this research, as it presents a problem for “blank slate theory”. If human mating is assortive, then corellations between parent and child socioeconomic status are likely to be substantively d

Use them as trash liners or you can cut them to make doggy doodoo bags.

I loved the new plastic bags in California ever since they came out. Those old weak bags always ripped and tore. Had no idea the new ones were reusable! They make much better trash liners than the old ones.

I mean the drug users that punched my car, break windows, yell at all hours, stole my best friends bike tire, and shit around every corner even though there are plenty of public toilets. Don’t care whether it’s “legal”.

People should be allowed to take whatever substances they want, as long as they stay away from my neighborhood. I’ve moved as far away from drug users as I could and it was the best decision to increase my productivity, lower my stress, and

It’s definitely localized. most societies don’t look favorable on drug use including most of east Asia, south and south east Asia, Middle East, and more.

Because of the censorship and self censorship of science, it’s impossible for outsiders to know what happened one way or another. Linking to a journal article doesn’t solve that problem.

I don’t think currying is esoteric at all, and if someone told me in a code review that it’s “too complex” I’d start looking for a new job immediately, since it’s a career dead end if the reviewer doesn’t even understand simple functional p

Platforms never tell me why I’ve been banned, so I don’t know. But I’ve been banned at some point by every social media platform I’ve used except hacker news and Google.

If you are relying on a third party social media platform for your business: - make sure you have at least 3 aged accounts that have full administrative privileges. When one gets banned make/buy a new one immediately. - never use a bus

I wish they used irc instead of discord, the UX options available are much better. As it is I can barely use mid journey.

You can use services like mobilesms but they are paid per verification.

That’s lower than inflation, making it a reduction in real terms.

Sure if you can find a geography where your benefits are greater than your costs compared to a different, by definition that is doing more - efficiency is great. Reducing costs doesn’t always mean a net reduction in output; if I can work 1

There’s two main approaches to economics that aren’t bullshit: empiricism and praxeology. With empiricism, you conduct some sort of experiment (or identify a natural experiment) than can verify falsifiable predictions. With praxeology, you

Going back to the original article, the subject is regarding ergodicity and economic benefits of cooperation. The commenter I’m replying to extended an analogy to claim that this research extends to certain countries social welfare system.

Let’s assume what you’re saying was true: doing less is better. Well just mechanically, a “evil” society that does more will attract more labor and capital than one that doesn’t. Any area of competition except “goodness” will be won by the

It’s interesting because most Ponzi schemes present themselves as a way to pool and share wealth.

Then why is real gdp per capita in many Western European countries mostly stagnant since 2008? If what you’re saying was true, Europe should be growing faster than USA and even faster than countries like China that have much worse social sa

Due to some recently revealed corruption issues in the USA that the fbi was covering up, there’s more drama than usual regarding funding. Expect to see lots of fbi fluff pieces until their funding is secured.

Smith here isn’t arguing for a moral reevaluation of selfishness but rather pointing out that market systems have evolved to take advantage of even selfishness. In areas where this market systems haven’t evolved proper mechanisms yet, the e

Economist is undisguisedly neoliberal, which also means it’s anti protectionist. The us centrist democrats haven’t been neoliberal since Obama. They’ve become nationalist and in favor of industrial policy.

Noah has become a political pundit who tends to straw man the opponents to his preferred political ideology of centrist us democrat. That’s not to say he isn’t worth reading, it’s good to know what kinds of arguments that group is making be

It depends on the purpose. Here you say it’s just so you can call them by their name properly, so just use a single text field “What name would you like us to address you as?”. If there’s legal or other issues that might not be good enough.

Yeah if someone is telling you that crypto is immune to regulation they’re lying and probably trying to scam you.

Interesting that the DMCA is a major block for right to repair. Yet another reason why this disgusting law must be repealed.
